What will happen if we give DC supply to AC motor?

Answer Posted / rahul

of course it will not run..coz an AC motor(sync or ind)
needs rotating magnetic field which is possible to get only
if dc supply is rotating. Sync motor has arm on stator. So
no rotating field. And induction m/c run on Electromagnetic
induction principle which is not possible with dc coz ckt
saturates in dc(similar to transformer). So there can be
heavy heating followed by damage;

I just purchased a 4 position cam switch to be used to operate a 3-speed blower motor. The motor is a 10 amp motor and has 3 wires that are used to control speed. The cam switch was rated at 660V 20 amps but when I received it, I noticed that it has AC-15 operational current rating (Ie) of 4/5 amps. If I am reading the label correctly. the 4/5 amps is related to 440v/220V (Ue). Other ratings are AC-3: 5.5A, AC2: 7.5A and AC-4: 1.5A. My questions are 1) Is it safe to use this switch with the motor I have 2) what is the difference between the 20 amp Ith ratting and the Ie operational ratings?
